Three days of being intensley audited to the stringent requirements of NASA and AS9100 will lead one to heavy drinking or suicide or both.

It's over now, we scored 995 out of a possible 1000, cause we have our S**t together. Now it's going to take a few days to recover from the stress.......Cheers!

We just passed an FDA/ISO13581/QS audit.

We're all still half drunky.

Those things can be brutal...

Agreed JB, we both need a drink. I have to have this company prepared twice a year (every 6 months) and it a real pain in the butt trying to get accountants and engineers to realize they are working to requirements and standards. Dayum primadonas (I know cause I used to be one.)

BSG, was it a third party audit? If it was who's your registrar?

Aerospace and medical - very tough...

I think I've actually felt pain while being audited...

I've seen people cry and shake involuntarily (for real). They just can't take the pressure.....

I'm so used to it by now I'm pretty unphased by any of it and if you know your system and it meets the requirements then it's somewhat easier but still extremeley stressfull.

And MJ, Stanley could'nt handle it.........;)

Do you prefer a male auditor or female?

Well...if you were the auditor I'd win either way, right?
